How to get Sublime Text 3 to automatically highlight CSHTML as HTML

htmlsublime-text-3syntax highlighting

I have a bunch of .CSHTML files that I want to be highlighted. Every time I open a .CSHTML file I have to go to the bottom right of the sublime text window and manually tell it to treat the CSHTML as HTML. How do I force SB3 to automatically do this?

Open any .cshtml file
In the main-menu, choose View > Syntax > Open all with current extension as… and select HTML

Sublime Text 3 HTML auto indent issue

I can reproduce this on OSX using the latest build 3053 when I type the opening div, hit Enter twice, close the div, go back up a line, and hit Tab to position the cursor for another tag. However, there is a way around it: type the first div element, then immediately type </ and the tag will auto-close. Move your cursor back between the opening and closing tag, and hit Enter. You'll end up with your cursor like so:

<div class="myclass">
    |
</div>

and you can start typing another tag without the problematic behavior occurring - Sublime takes care of the auto-indenting for you. Besides, I like to close my tags as soon as I open them, just so I don't forget - I'm easily distracted :) However, once your cursor is indented, don't hit Backspace and then Tab again, or the same problem will happen.

No, I don't know where to report a bug for the beta, except by posting in the forum. It was down for me too the other day, but it seems to be working as I write this. I just posted the bug, so hopefully somebody can do something about it.

Happy coding!

Sublime Text automatically removes the indent

Add "trim_automatic_white_space": false to your user settings. When set to true, auto indent tabs will be automatically removed when the cursor is moved off of the line.
